Every day buys you the night. Gather, build and grow stronger while the sun holds — then the bell rings, and the horde comes for your walls.
Loot chests, mine ore and fell timber. Raise walls and towers, recruit townsfolk, and spend hard-won gold at the War Table.
Ring the war bell and brace. Orks pour from every biome toward the keep — grunts, scouts, berserkers and warp-casting shamans. Survive until dawn.
“This island was quiet once. Forest, snow, a little wind. Nothing out here but the wolves…”
Not just a defense game — a whole island that works, fights and grows around you.
Swing, crit and block with stamina. Four ork breeds — grunts, scouts, berserkers and shamans — each with their own brain and bite.
Lay out plots and raise houses, walls, towers and workshops. A real town economy with food, repair and burn.
Woodcutters fell real trees. Miners chip real boulders and cart the stone home. Recruit them, feed them, grow the town.
A branching upgrade tree — blade, armor, abilities and defenses. Spend gold and stone to climb it night after night.
Forest, snow, desert, rock and swamp on one enlarged island — each with its own ork camp, wildlife, weather and loot.
Archer towers, ballistae and shrines you unlock and place. Ring the war bell to call the night on your own terms.
The horde pens captives like cattle. Clear a warband, break the cage open, and they take up arms at your side.
An off-map ork fortress beyond the swamp feeds the waves — patrols, the Blight, and towers that fire on sight.
You are not one knight.
You are a line — and the blade does not fall when you do.
When the hero falls, the next heir takes up the sword with every upgrade intact. Your townsfolk are your lives. Lose the keep, or lose the last of the bloodline — only then is it over.

Drag the slider — same ground, before and after a few nights of fortifying.
The keep — bare ground vs. fully walled
